A fairly common migrant found from mid-April through mid-May, and again from mid-September through mid-October.

The male Rose-breasted Grosbeak is a striking bird with a bold black and white plumage, punctuated by a deep rose triangle in the middle of the white breast.  The female’s plumage is completely different and resembles a large brown streaky sparrow.
